Where to find CodeCharter release notes and changelogs

Where to find CodeCharter's release notes and how they are organized.

CodeCharter ships new versions regularly. The Downloads page always shows the current version together with its release notes, plus a list of the most recent earlier releases with their own notes. This wiki page deliberately does not repeat that list — it changes far more often than the documentation, and a copy here would drift out of sync with the version you are actually running.

How release notes are organized

Release notes follow the Keep a Changelog convention: within one release, entries are grouped under headings such as Added (new commands, options, rule-authoring capabilities, or built-in rules), Changed (behavior that shifted without breaking existing usage), Removed (a breaking change — only appears in a major-version release), Fixed (bug fixes), and Security, whichever apply to that release.

Checking what changed since your last upgrade

Run codecharter --version to see exactly which build you have (see Versioning for how to read the output), then open that version's notes on the Downloads page and read forward through every release up to the one you are moving to. The SemVer contract described on the Versioning page tells you in advance which kind of change to expect at each version level: a patch or minor upgrade is always safe to take without review, a major upgrade is the one worth reading closely.
